My typical workflow was:
- Schedule the reboot
- do my changes
- Make sure everything was working properly
- Go get lunch
- Notice a bunch of pages and alarms about a firewall going offline
- Rush back to my office
- Login to the firewall
- Schedule the reboot
- Re apply the changes
- Test it again
- CANCEL THE FING REBOOT THIS TIME
- Eat my now cold lunch
- booi 3y agoThis used to be my workflow as well. I did make a few improvements though - begin change control at 4:55pm on Friday before Christmas - schedule reboot - paste changes - make sure everything is working properly - leave security key on desk - go to christmas party - firewall goes offline, pages go off - remotely log into firewall with phone - rush back to office to get security key - accidentally type init 1 hanging server - discount datacenter remote hands not picking up the phone - rush to datacenter to power cycle server - :(
